Girl's Day Out, Tooth Fairy and Mississippi Mud Pie

So school is kicking my behind, but I know it is not an excuse not to update the blog. So here it is moma!

Georgia and I enjoyed our first official girls' only day. We had haircuts and she got her nails painted and then we went to lunch. she loved the beauty salon and everyone loved her. As we were walking back to the car she asked everyone who passed by if they were going to the salon too!

Aidan lost his first tooth. And according to my mom and sister we should have given him $10 for it, He got $4. He quickly lost another one and earned another $2. Of course maw mawpam is sending him $10 in the mail.

Oh, maid Mississippi Mud Pie and everyone loved it, especially KARA!

An almost White Christmas

Yes, I am wearing a hooters t-shirt!

Looking great in the their Christmas outfits, before we went to church and everyone not so happy anymore.

Christmas program

The Christmas tree before Kara took all of the ornaments off

Of course we got tons of snow the day after Christmas, but the kids loved it anyway. Here are some pics of Christmas, snow and Georgia's first Christmas program.

I am back in school, working on counseling license, so say a prayer for me that I pass and don't go crazy myself in the process!

Birtdhday, ballet and Halloween?

Kara is Alice in Wonderland

Aidan as a vampire and Georgia as a butterfly

I am so sorry it has taken me so long to post, but we have been so busy around here. The girls have been sick for 1 1/2 months and of course the holidays.

D.C. Trip

Georgia misses Car-Car

Everybody headed to the park

Dinosaurs!

We are such city girls!

Shannon, Josie, Aidan and Spencer

The Price family has finally ventured to D.C., I know we have been in the area over a year, but we've never managed to get there. We spent the weekend with our friend's the Baldwins (they have 3 kiddos too). We had a blast and Georgia and Aidan miss Car-Car and Spencer loads, and little Josie too.

We took it easy and just went to the Museum of Natural History, all of the kids loved and it, and all of the adults were pretty exhausted afterwards. Riding the metro was a highlight. Us parents all took turns watching each others kids, Aidan seemed to really like holding Shannon's hand a lot and Spencer (the Baldwins oldest), seemed to like holding my hand.We also hung out in the park Sunday morning before we went back home. It was pretty funny that both Adam and I felt it was the easiest trip we have ever been on (at least with kids) because we didn't have to worry about our kids destroying anything or terrorizing anyone, it is so nice to stay with friends with 3 kids too!'

Fall

So I know it technically isn't fall yet, but I am really feeling fall right now, between the cooler weather, pumpkin spice lattes and my kids constantly asking "how many days until halloween?" Seriously we should have a count down like people do for Christmas.
School started last week and while Georgia wishes she could go everyday, all day, Aidan wishes he didn't have to go at all. I am not sure how I feel about him being in a regular class room. His teacher seems wonderful she was after all the teacher of the year last year, but even she knows Aidan needs more than what she can give him. I have already spoken to the counselor and will probably start looking into some accomodations for Aidan with our first meeting at the end of the month. We are working on his behavior and that got better as the week progressed, he just doesn't want to do the work. Georgia is loving pk3 and her ballet lessons. Now I am just trying to get her busy on her no school days. Kara is a cruising fool and is talking constantly, especially moma, moma all day just to get me to respond to her and that she starts yapping away, don't know what she is saying, but she looks real serious about it.
Since my days have slowly revolved into a constant stream of diapers, peanut butter and jelly and stop touching your brother/sister, I am actually trying to go back to school in the spring. I am not quite ready yet to return to work full time, so hoping the school thing works out and I will get either my teacher certification or that with a masters.
Adam is busy with work and traveling every once in awhile. Of course he is also busy with the kids and doing some things around the house, wow we are really parents!

Birthdays, Digging Potatoes and Chickens

Sorry I haven't posted lately, but we have been a traveling. We finally made it to LA, after a weekend here with my parents and nieces celebrating Aidan's birthday (party #2). Aidan headed back with my family and enjoyed a week of spoiling from his g-parents without having to share them with his sisters. Needless to say he didn't want to call home and was not to pleased to see me, Adam and the girls show up at my parents house ruining his plans of never coming home.

While at my parents Aidan took up the job of feeding the chickens and collecting eggs, which he took very seriously, even foregoing a sleepover at his cousins house in order to be at maw-maw and paw-paw's house to take care of the chickens. In fact he had a plan to bring at least one home with us, that is of course if he would indeed agree to come back home with us. I think it was only the excitement of getting to fly in an airplane again that lead him to willingly come home!

Of course paw paw also took him fishing on old paw paw's boat and he now has aspirations of opening a fish restaurant, of course he has jobs for us all, Adam is to catch the fish, I am to cook it and he of course gets to drive the boat.

We also got to spend a few days with Adam's parents and to see some of our friends in Bossier City. We miss you Fenner's!

The week with my family ended with another bday party for Aidan (party # 3), Kara, and my nieces Hailee and Emma. It was so great to see everyone, especially family we haven't seen in a few years.

Ballerina Georgia

Georgia took her first ballet lessons last week, really it was more like tumbling, but of course I didn't tell her that. She loved it and it gave her an even bigger head. She know she is pretty, smart and a princess and now she knows she is a ballet dancer! She will have two more weeks of classes this summer and then will take it once a week once she starts prek3 in the fall. She is a little young for prek3, but she is potty trained and too big for her britches, she likes to be with the older kids, because she gets spoiled! I don't know where she gets that from, because I am never spoiled!

Kara is doing great, she turned one on Friday, it as been such an hectic year, that I can't believe she one already! We will have her official part at my sister's house in August when we finally head to LA to visit the family! We will also celebrate Aidan's, and my nieces Hailee and Emma's bdays as well, poor Georgia the only winter baby, she loves all of the attention, so I know she wouldn't want to share he big day!
